Best ROCK Engineer Mixing and Mastering Services
Welcome to Cheap Audio Mastering!
Here are a few details about our Rock Mixing and Mastering Services.
Rock has so many different niches, we needed to create an entire page to explain what we can do for your Rock songs.
Please browse the site, listen to samples, and get a feel for what we are all about.
I would say for the first 10 years of my career rock music was easily the most popular genre. I gained experience working on 1,000s of rock songs in every niche style. Now Hip Hop has surpassed rock, but in my personal career, I have the most experience working with rock songs.
Styles in rock really vary. I still get in old school 70’s rock and I retain that softer analog sound with these tunes. 80s rock still comes in, and heavy metal too. Punk and alternative rock are very big. And the more modern pop rock sound is prevalent. I have a lot of experience in every niche rock style and will do a great job for you!
My old school rock references I go with the Eagles, Jethro Tull, Jimi, 80s Van Halen, AC/DC. Bon Jovi and Journey for 80s pop rock, Guns and Roses, more current I go with Imagine Dragons. If you have a group you like, let us know and we can reference that style into your music.
I’ve been in this game a very long time, and have more experience than 90% of the sound engineers you will find online, and I charge 75% less than most! Scroll down, listen to my samples and you be the judge. Why waste a bunch of money with someone else, when I can do a better job for you?
I can’t wait to get started on your project!
How Much Does Rock Mastering Cost?
Rock Mastering costs $15. We’re cheaper than most, but you’ll find our quality to be better too!
How Much Does Rock Mixing Cost?
Rock Mixing costs $40. This is for a 10 stem mix. 75% of my work over the past two years has been mixing, and most of those clients are repeat customers. I’m very good at Rock Mixing and Mastering and will do a great job for you. Don’t pay someone else $250-$400 and get back trash!

My Rock Before and After Samples
Since 2012, I’ve mixed and mastered hundreds of Rock songs, from many different countries and in several different languages. Check out a small handful of my before and after Rock samples.
I’m a consummate professional, and I will make sure that every song not only sounds the best it can, but is consistent from song to song. This is why you hire a human professional sound engineer. Auto software CANNOT do this!
This is also the biggest difference you will find between a pro with vast experience and an amateur engineer. With an amateur, one song will be too bright, one will be dull, bass too high, then the bass is gone, and overall volumes will vary. Their results from song to song will be all over the map, because they don’t understand what they’re trying to achieve to begin with.
How to find a Rock mixing and mastering engineer
Find out how long they’ve been sound engineering, what companies have they worked for, and how do their samples sound? If they have less than a year of experience, and their samples are poor (or they don’t even have any) obviously your results will be poor too. How could they not be?
And of course their rates. If someone charges $500 to mix and master a song, and my work is better for $50, come on now.
I started Cheap Audio Mastering in 2012. I worked with John Rogers at JR Mastering for several years before that. Listen to my Rock samples on this page. And then Listen to all of the samples on my website. Then you decide.
I’m excited to get started, and I will do a great job for you. I will bring YOUR vision to life!
One of my favorite go to Rock reference tracks!
Sweet Child O’ Mine. I love this song! The mix is kept spacious. Lots of room. So, you can clearly hear the nuances in the vocals and the beautiful guitar parts. An absolute classic!

Preparing your Rock song for Mixing or Mastering
PREPARING FOR ROCK AUDIO MASTERING
1. Most of you know, but mastering involves ONE single stereo interleaved file (.wav, .aiff, .mp3) per song. 48hz or 44.1hz and 16 or 24bit. If you’re sending more than one file, this is mixing. Check out my mixing rates.
2. Do not go over 0 level on any of your tracks or the main/stereo out. -3 to -6 dbs from the top is fine. Overall volume boost is done in mastering, not mixing.
PREPARING FOR ROCK MIXING
1. We do not work with pro tools, fl studio, cubase, etc. session files, only .wav, .aiff files, or MP3 files.
2. Export each files at 44.1 or 48kHz, and 16 or 24bit. IMPORTANT – Each stem file must be exported from beginning to end, so when I import each one and start at 0:00 the entire song plays in sync. Please, DO NOT upload a bunch of random .wav file clips from your DAW audio folder.
3. Do not go over 0 level and clip any of your tracks.
